The most effective conditions of in vitro culture were studied for mass propagation of Pteris cretica 'Wilsonii'. Spores of the species germinated within 7 weeks. The greatest proliferation was obtained with Knop and Hyponex media, but growth was more effective in Hyponex medium. MS medium induced necrosis of prothalli in all strength of nitrogen and sucrose except in case of 0% sucrose. Hyponex medium supplemented with 1% sucrose and 0.6% agar promoted propagation and growth of prothalli. In Hyponex medium, optimal inoculation method was homogenization, but in MS medium dividing colonies of prothalli was more effective. Culturing on solid medium was more effective than liquid culture method. Liquid culture induced necrosis of prothalli. Shaking cultured prothalli showed good growth, but propagation was inhibited compared to those cultured on solid medium.

The experiment was tried to identify culture media which was suitable for seed germination and seedling growth of wild orchids, Calanthe discolor and Habenaria radiata. When seeds of Calanthe discolor, which was treated with ultrasonics for 30 minutes, were sowed in Murashige and SKoog(MS) medium, germination was much more promoted than other treatments. Seedling of C. discolor grew more rapidly in 3g/L Hyponex and 2g/L tryptone(H$_3$T$_2$) medium and 3g/L Hyponex and 2g/L peptone(H$_3$P$_2$) medium, especially in H$_3$P$_4$ medium among those media, pseudobulb became more corpulent. Habenaria radiata, whose tubers were obtained from seedlings, were sprouted more vigorously in 3g/L Hyponex and 1g/L peptone(H$_3$P$_1$) medium and 1g/L Hyponex and 2g/L peptone(H$_1$P$_2$) medium; but multiplication of tubers, growth of daughter tubers and its corpulence were well established in 1g/L Hyponex and 2g/L peptone(H$_1$P$_2$) medium.

This study was conducted to find out the commercial in vitro propagation methods through protocom-like bodies (PLB) induced from shoot tip culture of Miltonia spp. Among several culture media for induction PLB from shoot tip in Miltonia spp., MS basal medium was better than Hyponex, Vacin & Went basal medium and other media supplemented with natural additives. PLB's proliferation and differentiation in Hyponex medium including $20g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ banana + $20g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ sucrose(pH 5.2) was better than in MS medium. It was tendency that solid media showed higher PLB fresh weight than liquid medium or other cotton bridge culture. The dark culture for 1~2 weeks and adding $10{\sim}20g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ sucrose on hyponex basal medium was the most effective to increase the PLBs growth and shoot number.

This experiment was conducted to extend utility of in-vitro culture material stalk and to mass produce uniform plants in Phalaenopsis. The optimal concentration of hyponex medium and plant hormone were examined. The most effective concentration of the hyponex in the flower stalk tissue culture of Phalaenopsis was $4mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. The most effective concentration of TDZ and BA on the formation of multiple shoots in Phalaenopsis flower stalk culture was $0.3mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and $5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, respectively. TDZ was more effective for formation of the shoots and multiple shoots than BA at the basic medium with hyponex $4g{\cdot}L^{-1}$.

The study was conducted in order to get basic information on seed germination and seedling growth through the experiments such as basal medium, concns of auxin, sucrose agar and pH values. Seed germination was very excellent in $3g/{\ell}$ hyponex and $5g/{\ell}$ peptone containing medium. Multiple shoots were formed in $1-3g/{\ell}$ hyponex and $5g/{\ell}$ pepton containg medium supplemented with $1.0g/{\ell}$ IBA, $30g/{\ell}$ sucrose and $8g/{\ell}$ agar. Growth of seedlings was more stimulated in the same amount of hyponex and peptone as above medium substituted with $40g/{\ell}$ sucrose and $6g/{\ell}$ agar without IBA.

The optimal growth condition of in vitro stem cutting of Dendrobium nobile 'Hamana Lake Dream' ${\times}$ 'No. 55' was investigated. Among various media and their concentrations, MS media had better effect on the growth of micro stem cutting than Hyponex media in all concentration levels except stem length. The activated charcoal concentration in MS media showed different effects on number of stem and root, leaf length, and fresh weight: the most effective in the range of 0.1 to 1.0 g/L and barely effective above 2.0 g/L. Addition of agar 5 g/L, sucrose at 40 g/L, and peptone at 1 g/L to MS media increased significantly stem length, leaf width, and fresh weight, internode length and number of roots, and the number of stem and leaves. On the other hand, addition of gelite with any concentration had no effect on the growth of micro stem cutting compare to that of control. The optimal temperature for growth of micro stem cutting was $28^{\circ}C$. Under the same temperature, MS medium was better than Hyponex medium for the growth of stem. In addition, sucrose at 40 g/L was the most effective on growth at $28^{\circ}C$.

This study was carried out to investigate the factors affecting seed germination of Korean native orchids, such as Habenaria radiata, Bletilla striate and Cypripedium macranthum. In general, seeds of H. radiata was effectively germinated on solid medium and the highest germination (29.6%) was achieved on Hyponex solid medium. But shoot growth was better in MS liquid medium containing $100mL\;L^{-1}$ coconut water (MSC medium). Seed germination of B. striata was effectively induced on MS solid medium. However, no seed germination was observed in all liguid medium tested. Seed germination experiments of C. macranthum were performed using 6 kinds of media and seeds harvested 90 days after cross- and self-pollination. Cross-pollinated seeds were germinated on all the media with the best germination ratio of 4.45% on MSC medium. But no germination was observed from self-pollinated seeds.

The effect of medium composition on PLB formation and multiplication and shoot regeneration was studied to establish the micropropagation system of the tropical orchid Phalaenopsis. The highest frequence of PLB formation resulted from the VW medium with 1.2 times ion concentration, 1% sucrose, 1.5g/L PVP or 2.5g/L active charcoal, apple and potato extract and 4g/L gellan gum. The highest ratio of PLB multiplication was obtained from the VW medium with 2% sucrose, apple and potato extract and cotton plate. The shoot regeneration was the most effective with the hyponex medium with 3% apple, 3% potato and 4% banana extract.

In order to develop effective acclimatization methods for Aralia elata plantlets regenerated from somatic embryos, various acclimatizing conditions were compared regarding both survival rate and growth of the plantlets. The plantlets were transplanted into plastic boxes containing artificial soil in the presence of either several levels of MS liquid media, distilled water, 2% sucrose or 0.1% hyponex solution. They were then cultured by spraying of distilled water twice a week and maintained in the normal tissue culture room. Perlite was proved to be better than vermiculite on survival rate and growth of the plantlets. As the size of perlite (larger than 0.2 cm in diameter) increased, both the survival rate and growth of the plantlets improved. Among the various MS liquid media and different aqueous solutions tested, distilled water appeared to result in the best survival rate and growth. MS media were also effective in increasing survival rate and supporting growth when diluted to 1/4 and/or 1/8. The acclimatized plantlets could be transplanted directly onto the nursery bed and grown normally. The above results suggest that plantlets regenerated from somatic embryos of Aralia elata be effectively acclimatized using a plastic box containing perlite with distilled water treatment.

It was determined optimal Culture conditions and suitable growth regulators for seed germination, growth of callus, and protoplasts derived from cultured and mesophyll cells in Gremastra appendiculata. Induction of fusion between protoplasts of cultured and mesophyll cells was examined. The best conditions of seed germination and growth of callus were achieved on Hyponex medium contained plant growth regulators(2mg/l 2, 4-D, lmg/l Kinetin). Viability and regeneration of cell wall in protoplasts was determined with fluorescence microscope. Also, fused protoplasts were achieved by using PEG solution between protoplasts of cultured and mesophyll cells.
